Storing Wine Bottles - Miele KWT 6833 SG Operating And Installation Instructions

Storing wine bottles

Vibration and movement have a negat-
ive effect on the maturing process,
which can in turn affect the taste of the
wine.
To avoid disturbing other bottles when
removing a bottle of wine, store bottles
of the same type beside each other on
the same shelf. Avoid stacking bottles
on top of one another on the wooden
shelves.
Always place the bottles in a horizontal
position so that the natural corks can
be kept moist on the inside and air is
prevented from getting into the bottles.

Risk of injury from falling wine
bottles.
Wine bottles may become wedged in
the wooden shelves above and fall
out of the wine conditioning unit
when the shelves are pulled out.
Always pull out the wooden shelves
slowly and carefully.

Risk of damage and injury from
broken glass.
If wooden shelves and bottles pro-
trude too far forwards, they may
damage the glass door when it is
closed.
Please ensure that the wooden
shelves and wine bottles do not pro-
trude.
Do not cover the vents in the rear
wall, as they are essential for keeping
the appliance cool.
